    merit pay ain’t the way

    There is no question that Barack Obama will be a better president for the state of education in this country than George “is our children learning” Bush could ever hope to be, and almost anything would be better than Bush’s odious, expensive, top-heavy and radically stupid No Child Left Behind.

    That being said, merit pay is just another Republican red herring and should [...]



    christian men: do you know if your wife is truly female?

    Today is Write to Marry Day, when like-minded bloggers are speaking out against Proposition 8 in California, and all of the other anti-gay marriage constitutional amendments and legislative initiatives past and present.

    While this may come as a shock to the Mormons and Catholics and Evangelicals behind Prop 8, either their god is completely ignorant of biology, or he’s the biggest practical joker [...]

    Oops, Joe the Plumber has some Issues

    Noticed this comment to an article about poor Joe the Plumber over at OpEd News this morning:

    The crap is about to hit the fan…

    from a post:

    “John McCain did great tonight in the debate. But every time John mentioned “Joe the Plumber,” some of us in the campaign banged our heads against the wall. If Steve Schmidt had [...]



    Columbian Endorses Carrier, Probst and Wallace

    David Carrier

    Tim Probst

    Deb Wallace

    The Columbian has an accurate and strong endorsement for all three Democrats running for the State Legislature in the 17th Legislative District in Clark County.  As a former Chair of the 17th District Democrats and someone who knows all three endorsees, it is quite surprising to see a newspaper that endorsed George Bush in 2004 [...]
